Facial Plastic Surgery with a Focus on Rhinoplasty

Richard E. Davis, MD, FACS specializes in primary and revision rhinoplasty
and limits his South Florida practice to reconstructive
and cosmetic surgery of the face. Board certified as both
a facial plastic surgeon and otolaryngologist (ENT), Dr. Davis has performed
thousands of nasal surgeries, ranging from the reconstruction
of noses ravaged by disease or trauma to complex
revision rhinoplasty cases involving multiple previous surgeries.

Since 2002, Dr. Davis' practice
has been devoted almost exclusively to cosmetic and functional nasal surgery,
comprising approximately 85% of his surgical caseload. He performs 150 to
300 rhinoplasties per year, and on average, 60% of those are revision rhinoplasties.
The majority of these surgeries are multi-faceted, incorporating the correction
of unsatisfactory cosmetic results from previous rhinoplasties with structural
repair and restoration of proper nasal function. Dr. Davis also occasionally performs other facial plastics surgical procedures in conjunction with rhinoplasty, including chin augmentation and eyelid surgery.

Dr. Davis is a frequent instructor and guest speaker at plastic surgery
symposiums throughout the United States and abroad.
Now in private practice, he served as Chief of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive
Surgery at the University of Miami School of Medicine at Jackson Memorial
Hospital in Miami, Florida from
1999 to 2007; he continues to serve as Voluntary Professor of Otolaryngology at the University. After serving a four-year term as Southern Regional Director for the AAFPRS Board of Directors, Dr. Davis was recently elected to serve as Vice President of Education for the AAFPRS and its educational foundation.

One Nose Does Not Fit All

Dr. Davis understands the unique anatomic character of ethnic noses, and
the social and cultural implications that often accompany ethnic
rhinoplasty. Whether
you want your nose to look noticeably more Westernized, or you would like to keep your ethnic nasal
shape but undergo moderate refinements, he will listen carefully to your requests and work with you to ensure
that the surgical plan reflects the changes you envision.

event for the patient. Part of Dr. Davis' job is to prepare his patients
for the emotional and physical facets of the surgery process, treat them
with kindness and compassion, fully explain the surgical procedure including
benefits and risks, and respond quickly to any pre- or post-surgery concerns. Read
